best exhaust for the c5 ok so i recently purchased a 2000 frc with dynatech long tubes dynatech x-pipe catted and a hooker cat-back. I was considering changing out the xpipe to something without cats because i want a little more sound. Any suggestions? also will this throw and check engine lights or mess with anything in the car?
I have American Racing 1 3/4 LT to 3" collector 3"X2 1/2 X pipe and custom over axel

wow that vette sounds mean. Unfortunately the previous owner only put 2.5 inch exhaust on it so i doubt it'll be that loud. Do you guys think that changing the xpipe will help the loudness? also i head something about a down pipe right off the headers to eliminate the cats. Do you know anything about that?

I had texas speed lts no cats x pipe and b&B bullets it sounded real mean and deep I did have to get it tuned for the check engine light but I also wanted the tune to max out the power of the LTs and cat-back
Best catback overall in my opinion is Borla Stingers. I have had about every catback on my car and it's the best "overall". Sounds good on a stock car or modded. If the car is heavily modded motor-wise, then you might want something toned down a bit. Had them on my car for almost 3 years, then wanted a change.
SLP sound like crap. B&B Bullets sound badass only on a modded car with cam.. etc... But are too much if you drive the car around town a lot.
I personally now have Corsa and like them alot. It's a refined sound.
I would personally leave the rest as is and dump the hooker catback exhaust for something different.
